how to remove testing from the list of servers?

I set pacman up to use testing awhile back and recently an update broke a couple apps... namely Gaim and Firefox....so I manually reverted back to the  current and extra releases...edited pacman.conf back to the way it was...and removed the testing dir from /var/lib/pacman... and even reinstalled pacman itself...but it still looks for testing when I -Syu. How can I fix it so it doesnt look for it anymore?..EDIT..fixed

testing must still be in /etc/pacman.conf
comment it out or remove it
